Amazing.

 

[Sykotik]

Thanks for fixing Modbot, Stump! Here's my giveaway:

Thank you for SS2! I had it in my cart ready to go, but then I seen your post!

 

[phantomspiker]

How long is SS2? Is it linear or is it Metroid-esque, where you explore and unlock new areas? Is it actually still scary/tense?

It's linear, but there is a lot to explore and you can revisit areas.

Scary/tense? It has its moment I guess.

*edit* length is about 15-20 hours.

 

[BrettWeir]

The time between noon and 1 EST is like Xmas eve, just waiting to see what is on sale that day!

 

[A Human Becoming]

Good morning everybody! Who's ready for another day of card collecting and summer sales?

Fuck cards, the emoticons are too small and I expect the market to plummet in the next few months.

It pretty much has already.

Thanks for shatter bro!

 

[lmpaler]

Mark of the ninja

I went with this too even though they all look interesting

Profile backgrounds, bro.

 

[scorpscarx]

Mark of the Ninja will probably end up being a close second behind FTL for your favorite new game that you got during the steam sale for those that grab it, it is a really exciting game.

 

[jshackles]

Profile backgrounds, bro.

Enhanced Steam, bro.

 

[Freezard]

I think the cards are at their lowest price point right now. I can't see how they would go down even more the coming months since most people have already farmed all their cards.

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

Enhanced Steam, bro.

Fair enough. I mostly use the client, though.

 

[t-ramp]

You are the man. Thanks!

You're welcome. Looking forward to playing myself.

 

[Qrusher14242]

i should really finish MOTN..was a really cool game just got distracted and havent played it in a while heh So many games to play

 

[rainking187]

Has there been cards added to any games that aren't flash, daily or community deals? I'm still waiting for Thomas Was Alone to get cards, but it's already 75% off and I doubt it will end up as one of those.

 

[Lexxon]

You guys talked me into SS2. Never played it but did enjoy the other -Shock games, particularly Infinite and BioShock 1. Kept it as a gift just in case I never get around to it though.

 

[CaptainZombie]

So far I've picked up XCOM Enemy Unknown for me and my brother, then I just pulled the trigger on Tomb Raider. I already beat TR on PS3 but want to check it out with my 770.

*edit* length is about 15-20 hours.

The game isnt linear at all. It's not open world, but it's not linear either. There are certain actions you have to perform to open new areas, but you can still travel all the way back to the first area in the game through most of the game. It's more like open floor plan.

 

[73V3N]

Same here.
I will probably finish it if it gets cards today

Prepare to be blown away by how much game's have declined in awesomeness over the years.

 

[Exuro]

Same here. I want an excuse to go through the dev commentary.

 

[Magicman103]

That TressFX man.

do you know if this has been optimized at all for nvidia cards yet?

 

[fantomena]

Do it for Laras hair.

 

[Toki767]

do you know if this has been optimized at all for nvidia cards yet?

Doubt it, but it ran fine for the most part for me. I have a 560Ti.

 

[More_Badass]

*edit* length is about 15-20 hours.

If you really take your time with it, I'd say ~15 hours, maybe up to 18 on the first playthrough.

Forty minutes to decide, ugh

My wanted list is Gunpoint and Warband, then Puddle, Grimrock, SS2, and Rainbow Six if I have enough left

Besides the obvious genre trappings (Bioshock's atmosphere, DS's horror, RPG elements), what exactly makes SS2 a classic worth playing today?

 

[Toma]

Already added a shit ton more Indies to the Steam Indies Sale thread. Still updating, but you might want to check back if you only checked on the first day:

Ran fine with my GTX 690, don't know the FPS though.

 

[Komedy]

so what are we hoping for in a little over 30 mins

 

[A Human Becoming]

Profile backgrounds, bro.

Not enough, especially with Enhanced Steam. Just look at this!

Whoever thought this was okay deserves...a stern talking to!

If anything, I'm getting some pretty sweet wallpapers out of all these trading cards. The Bastion ones are fantastic

 

[scorpscarx]

No, it isn't, the GoG version only has the extras.
